Long-time member Hannah B. is an advocate for credit unions and has seen CCCU, along with the city, grow in a variety of ways since she became a member in 1994. She originally joined the credit union at our previous Shadow Lane branch while she was working for Clark County. Hannah said, “Joining CCCU was a natural fit and it was easy doing business with the credit union because the offerings were and are broad based. Whatever my financial needs are, they have me covered.”

Over the years Hannah has enjoyed many benefits of membership with the credit union and even encouraged her daughter to join.  Hannah financed her car with CCCU and said, “The process was painless, and I received a much lower rate plus Mechanical Repair Coverage.” She even refinanced her home last year with a great low rate from the credit union. Hannah said, “I’m a big advocate of Clark County Credit Union and I only use credit unions, no banks. Even the monthly checking fee is nothing compared to what banks charge without the benefits.”

Hannah is a long-time resident of Las Vegas, attending both Rancho and Las Vegas High Schools. In fact, she was the first elected African American student to LVHS’s student body council as the school secretary. Today, Hannah is the President of the Urban Chamber of Commerce and has held the position for the last eight years. Her love of education has spilled over in several ways including awarding hundreds of scholarships to local students since 1999. "Through a nonprofit also bearing her name, Brown has raised nearly $400,000 for college and trade school scholarship funds for local students," stated the Las Vegas Sun, August 2021. Hannah was recently selected to have a Las Vegas valley school named in her honor. She said, “When you make a difference in someone else’s life, someone always notices.” All in all, Hannah has dedicated her life to providing students with a good life by sharing education.

Thank you, Hannah, for your many years of education advocacy and your ongoing support of CCCU. You are a valued part of our 70-year history.

Located in the Southwest part of the valley, our Sunset branch opened originally in 2006. The Sunset team provides daily banking services in addition to Members Auto (car buying and selling service), commercial/business accounts and consumer and business lending.

Creson O., Branch Manager

Question: Do you have a favorite holiday?  

Answer: Yes, Thanksgiving. It has always been the one holiday that I get to see family that I don’t get to visit with throughout the year.  (But really any holiday that I get to see family is my favorite.)

Jackie L., Senior Member Service Representative

Question: What was the best vacation you ever took and why?

Answer: The best vacation I took was to Hawaii. I spent 10 days exploring the islands with my friends, hiking, and discovering so many beautiful sights. That was the best tan I’ve ever had in my life. I’m looking forward to going back.

Jennifer F., Member Service Representative

Question: Do you have a favorite holiday?

Answer: My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving because it is a time where the family comes together, and it’s a time where we can share stories and memories while eating delicious food. I cherish those moments with my family. Plus, we have a ton of leftovers - that means I don’t have to make dinner for the next couple of days!

Katie H., Member Service Representative

Question: Where’s the next place on your travel bucket list and why?

Answer: Italy. I’ve been trying to plan a trip there for the last couple of years, so hopefully I’ll get to go sometime next summer. I just want to explore the countryside and eat lots of pizza and pasta!

Sharafenna B., Member Service Representative

Question: What was the last TV show you binge-watched?

Answer: The last TV show I binge-watched was The Heist on Netflix. I heard a lot of things about it, and I was bored one day over the summer. It started off kind of slow but once it got interesting, I couldn’t stop watching it! I finished all four seasons in a matter of days.

The CCCU Cares committee recently partnered with Green Our Planet and the Goodie Two Shoes Foundation for two sponsored events to help students at local underprivileged schools. The credit union additionally provided 18 employee volunteers to assist at these events.

CCCU staff used their green thumbs during a garden clean-up event at Keller Elementary School in East Las Vegas. Prepared with gloves, shovels and guidance from Green Our Planet, they were able to successfully clean the school’s garden of weeds and overgrown grass which overtook the garden during the pandemic. Students will now be able to plant their crops and later harvest them for the spring farmer’s market that Green Our Planet holds in conjunction with its STEM program.

CCCU staff also attended an elementary school in the valley to help with outfitting 400 children with a new pair of shoes and 6 pairs of new socks. This event, hosted by the Goodie Two Shoes Foundation, empowers students to exercise their power of choice in finding the perfect pair of shoes, often the first pair of new shoes they have ever worn.

CCCU is proud to support children in need and will continue to volunteer with local nonprofits. To see other ways the credit union and the CCCU Cares committee are making a difference in our community, click here for recent press releases.
